Values for htmldb_item.text field do not display in CSV output

HTML DB experts,
I have a report query with the following 2 items in the SELECT statement:
wwv_flow_item.display_and_save(2, DOC_CD, 10) DOC_CD,
htmldb_item.text(3, DOC_DESC, 50, 255) DOC_DESC
I have enabled the CSV output for this report. The problem is, when I generate a csv file, only the DOC_CD (wwv_flow_item.display_and_save) displays. The values for the DOC_DESC (htmldb_item.text) do not display. What do I need to do to get the DOC_DESC to display?
Thanks for your help.

Items rendered using htmldb_item generate HTML tags on the form, not plain text. You are right, the CSV export excludes them.
Your best best is to create another report region on some other page with the same query except replace all the htmldb_item() calls with regular columns i.e. make it a read-only report and use the "export: CSV" template and put up a link to this page at the bottom of your editable report (instead of the builtin CSV link). This way when you click on this link, it will generate your report and immediately offer to export it to CSV
Hope this helps.

How do I write javascript for a text block to extract name from signature block?

Hello,
I've created a training certificate that the trainee has to sign electronically. To prevent someone from simply putting in their friends name in there and saving it; to send to their friend and help them from having to take the training and quiz I would like to write a javascript in the text block that would extract the name from their signature block and autofill the name in the text block. Is there a way to do this?

You would have to use JavaScript to access the signature field object and then you can access the various properties of the signature depending upon the certificate or method for signing.
signatureInfo
console.show();console.clear();
// Get particular info;
var f = this.getField("Signature1");
// uses the ppklite sig handler;
var Info = f.signatureInfo();
// Some standard signatureInfo properties;
console.println("name = " + Info.name);

How do I localize text strings in the javascriptresource section i a Javascript for Photoshop?

I have made a javascript for photoshop. I am using the <javascriptresource> and <terminology> tags to make the script to work with actions. How do I make the textstrings within the <javascriptresource> section local (translated)? The localize function and other ways to localize text that I described in the documentation do not work.

I recommend that you post your question in the scripts forum as this forum is meant for beginners. It is not that we won't help, it is that we may not beable to provide the best help. Good luck, I hope you can figure it out.

Advanced: JavaScript for billboards?

Hi, I have an interest in implementing billboards in 3-d PDF figures. This allows us to do things like eg. place soft blobby textures at particle positions to produce really nice visualisations of star clusters etc.
I've made some progress, but need help / ideas for going further.
So far, I can import a VRML file with a textured quad at the origin of the coordinate system. By querying the camera view direction on every redraw, I can apply a rotation to the quad so that it always faces the camera. That code looks roughly like this:
// rightObjsArray contains the meshes the quad
// undo the previous rotation/s
for (j = 0; j < rightObjsArray.length; j++) {
rightObjsArray[j].transform.rotateAboutVectorInPlace(-angle, normal);
// fetch camera
var camera = scene.cameras.getByIndex(0);
// calculate and normalise camera view direction
var camdir = camera.position.subtract(camera.targetPosition);
camdir.normalize();
// create a z-aligned vector
var zax = new Vector3(0., 0., 1.);
// my quad is drawn in the XY plane, so the following calculates
// a normal (vector) to rotate about, and the angle of rotation,
// such that our quad's Z axis will become aligned with the camera
// view direction
normal = camdir.cross(zax);
angle = -Math.acos(camdir.dot(zax));
// apply the rotation to objects, eg...
for (j = 0; j < rightObjsArray.length; j++) {
rightObjsArray[j].transform.rotateAboutVectorInPlace(angle, normal);
Now, this works pretty well, but there are two things that I still need to do:
1. rotate the quad in the viewing plane (plane for which the camera view direction is a normal) so that it is "upright" on the screen. I wanted to use the camera.up vector for this but my calculations show that camera.up is not orthogonal to the camera view direction I calculate above.
2. get it working for quads NOT at the origin of the coordinate system. I had hoped I could do this with a transform of the object to the origin, do the rotation, then transform back to the original position, but I can't seem to come up with any properties of the quad accessible from JavaScript that let me do this.
I would be delighted to hear suggestions on the above, either in this forum, or directly by email to

Javascript for multiple date fields

Hi all-
I have to write javascript for 15 different date fields in a form.
The requirement here is that we convert all date fields on Page 100 from date pickers (editable date fields) to display-only date fields with two controls for the users to set the date.
If the field is empty (no date registered yet), there will be a green checkmark(X). When the user clicks this checkmark, the current date is entered into the field.
If the field is not empty (there is a date already in the system), there will be a red X. When the user click this red X, the date from the date field is removed.
The javascript I am using here is
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
     function init(){
          var datePickerVal = $v2('P100_TODAYS_DATE');
          if(datePickerVal){
               $x_Show('ToggleDateR');
               $x_Hide('ToggleDateG');
          }else{
               $x_Hide('ToggleDateR');
               $x_Show('ToggleDateG');
     function toggleDateFunc(pValue){
          var sysDate = $v2('P100_DATE');
          if(pValue == 'R'){
               $x_Hide('ToggleDateR');
               $x_Show('ToggleDateG');
               $x_Value('P100_TODAYS_DATE','');
          }else if(pValue == 'G'){
               $x_Show('ToggleDateR');
               $x_Hide('ToggleDateG');
               $x_Value('P100_TODAYS_DATE',sysDate);
     window.onload = init;
</script>
This javascript is working for one date field( 'P100_TODAYS_DATE') but i have 15 different date fields in this page(100) all should have same funtionality. Please help me out how to write a logic to use this function for all the date fields.
Thanks,(apex 3.2)

Hi,
You can do the needful by re-using the code if you can give the item names as P8_DATE1, P8_DATE_hh1, P8_DATE2, P8_DATEhh2 etc..So your item name just differs by a sequence.
Now you write function which will return desired date value taking above items as input. Pass item names to this function, get session state using APEX_UTIL.GET_SESSION_STATE('item_name') API.
Now modify you code as
FOR i IN 1..30
LOOP
v_date_array[i] = f_get_date('P8_DATE'||i, 'P8_DATEhh'||i);
END LOOP;
....Now you have all date valus in array. Just write one update as follows
UPDATE TABLE1
SET date1 = my_date_array[1], date2 = my_date_array[2]..
WHERE ....Hope it helps :)

Hari

PDF Form javascript for making readonly field by using button

Please let me know the PDF Form JavaScript for making selected fields(Text field,Drop down list,..) as read-only by using Button.

Do you want your button to be made read only?
One starts with Acrobat JS Reference.
// make all fields in a form read only;
var oField; // variable for field being processed;
// loop through the form fields;
for (var i = 0; i < this.numFields; i++) {
// process each field name;
oField = this.getField(this.getNthFieldName(i)).readonly = true;

Controling space between Text Items when using htp.p('HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT')

I'm using the following code inside a table tag within a loop to generate a multi-row printable form
htp.p('<td cellspacing="0" align="right" width="100%" style="font-size:8pt">'||HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT(p_idx=>2,p_size=>1)||'</td>');
I'm still getting gaps between rows.
How do I control the space between each row ? I want each text item row packed up like a spreadsheet with no gaps between rows. Although not shown (border="0") there is the enclosing table cell for each field, so what I want is no cellspacing and maximized item height within each cell.
But with the above code I'm getting...
etc.
but I want
Anyone know how to do this?

Hi Chris , how's it goin'...
thanks for the response. I know how to control a table cell area's height but it's the height of the inner textitem that I'm having trouble with. When I turn on border="1" There's not much space left between cells, just the default width of a line. I just don't know how to expand the height of the text item. The CSS code you suggested, where do I put the code and how do I apply it?
Here is the guts of the PLSQL report code
for des_rec in des_cur loop
htp.p('<table height="100%" width="95%"border="0">');
htp.p('<tr>');
htp.p('<td style="font-size:8pt;font-family:Arial" width="80%" nowrap >'||
des_rec.DES_SERVICE_DESC||'</td>');
htp.p('<td cellspacing="0" align="right" width="5%" style="font-size:8pt">'||
HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT(p_idx=>2,p_size=>1)||'</td>');
htp.p('<td cellspacing="0" align="left" width="5%" style="font-size:8pt">'||
HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT(p_idx=>3,p_size=>1)||'</td>');
htp.p('</tr>');
htp.p('</table>');

Htmldb_item.text - show leading zero

Hi,
I've a report build up with the following query:
select htmldb_item.text(1, to_char(num1, '9990D99'), 5, 5,'style="text-align:center"') num1
from test1
union all
select htmldb_item.display_and_save(1, to_char(sum(num1), '9990D99'),5) num1
from test1
There are some numbers shown and at the end the sum of them. If the sum has a leading zero it is shown as 0.25, but for the value in the textfield is only shown 0 with to_char() - formatting, without it is shown .25 . What can I do to show there also 0.25. It seems to ignore my format given in the select.
Thanks
chrissy

They give us this formatting option, and many more, in Numbers '09. My suggestion for your case if you wish to stay with '08 would be to not format the cells as percentage, but to multiply them by 100 to make them a percentage without displaying the percent sign. You could then label the column to clarify the situation.

HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT : disable item !

Hello,
I have a question regarding the use of HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT,
Exemple, if my report contains the following :
select
HTMLDB_ITEM.HIDDEN(1,p.id) id,
HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT(2,p.year) year,
HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT(3,p.name) name
FROM person p
where p.id = :P1_ID
- the column year is diplayed but I have to disable it.
- the column name is updated by the user.
the save process is the following :
for i in 1..wwv_flow.g_f01.count loop
if wwv_flow.g_f01(i) is not null then
update person set name = wwv_flow.g_f03(i)
where id=:P1_ID and year = wwv_flow.g_f02(i) ;
end if;
end loop;
works fine.
My problem is : I must disable the column year, I have do the following :
select
HTMLDB_ITEM.HIDDEN(1,p.id) id,
HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT(2,p.year,3 ,2, 'DISABLED=DISABLED') year,
HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT(3,p.name) name
FROM person p
where p.id = :P1_ID
Now, wwv_flow.g_f02(i) is no longuer recognized !!!!!!
Any help !

        var myX1 = myPage.marginPreferences.right;
    else{
        var myX1 = myPage.marginPreferences.left;
        var myX2 = myPage.marginPreferences.right;
    var myY1 = myPage.marginPreferences.top;
    var myX2 = myPageWidth - myX2;
    var myY2 = myPageHeight - myPage.marginPreferences.bottom;
    return [myY1, myX1, myY2, myX2];
I think you can use the markup function on the selected item (Text Object have a markup method)

Html scripts for changing texts

does anyone have an html snippet code for flashing text like on the hot news headlines at the bottom of the apple home page - i have located scrolling text - but not flashing, or changing text? thanks

I just posted javascript snippet couple days ago to rotate images:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7079863&#7079863
The same method can be used for text head liners, however it's depend on how the head liners are supplied.
If you have to supply the head lines, you are on your own; you'll have to update them.
or you can use some ready made such as BBC: http://news.bbc.co.uk/nol/ifsnews/hi/frontpage/ticker.stm
or you can use webclip, webclip makes part of a web page into Dashboard widget, then process Dashboard code into HTML code. Anyway, here is Apple header liners in webclip: http://hdl.50webs.com/Dashboard/Widgets.html
